The Application of Forgings

Forging products are usually formed by a certain forging process, and its application range is very wide. In industry, manufacturing, etc. show their talents. Hefei forging accounts for a large proportion of forging in the country. Let’s take a look at the fields of application.

Aircraft forgings
Calculated by weight, about 85% of the components on the aircraft are forgings. Turbine disks, rear journals (hollow shafts), blades, and wing spars of aircraft engines, rib plates of fuselage, wheel brackets, and inner and outer cylinders of landing gear are all important forgings related to aircraft safety. Aircraft forgings are mostly made of high-strength wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant aluminum alloys, titanium alloys, nickel-based alloys and other precious materials. In order to save materials and save energy, most of the aircraft forgings are produced by die forging or multi-directional die forging presses.
Automotive forgings
Cars have 17-19% forgings by weight. The general car is composed of 15 parts such as body, box, engine, front axle, rear axle, frame, gearbox, drive shaft, steering system, etc. The characteristics of automobile forgings are complex appearance, light weight, poor working conditions, and safety. High standard. For example, crankshafts, connecting rods, camshafts, front beams, steering knuckles required for front axles, half shafts used in rear axles, half shaft bushings, transmission gears in axle boxes, etc. used in automobile engines, etc., are all related to Security key forgings for the safe operation of automobiles.
Diesel Engine Forgings
Diesel engine is a kind of power machinery, which is often used as an engine. Taking a large diesel engine as an example, the forgings used include cylinder head, main journal, crankshaft end flange output shaft, connecting rod, piston rod, piston head, crosshead pin, crankshaft transmission gear, ring gear, intermediate gear and oil pump. More than ten kinds of body and so on.
Marine forgings
Marine forgings are divided into three categories, main engine forgings, shafting forgings and rudder forgings. The main engine forgings are the same as the diesel engine forgings. Shafting forgings include thrust shafts, intermediate shafts and stern shafts. Rudder system forgings include rudder stock, rudder post, rudder pin and so on.
